It's been a long time since I rock an' rolled.
It's been a long time since I did the stroll.
Ooh, let me get it back, let me get it back, let me get it back,
Mm-baby where I come from.

It's been a long time, been a long time, been a long
Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time. Yes it has.

It's been a long time since the book of love.
I can't count the tears of a life with no love.
A-carry me back, carry me back, carry me back,
Mm-baby where I come from. Whoah~ooh~oh ~whoah~ooh~ooh~hohh.

It's been a long time, been a long time, been a long
Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time.

Ahhh-ahh~ahh ahh~ahh.

Hohhh, it seems so long since we walked in the moonlight,
A-makin' vows that just couldn't work right.
Hahh-yeah! Open your arms, open your arms, open your arms,
Mm-baby let my love come runnin' in. Let it!

It's been a long time, been a long time, been a long
Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time.

Yeah~hey.
Yeah~ay~ay.
Yeah hey.
Yeah hey.

Ooh-yeah, ooh~ooh-yeah.
Ooh-yeah, ooh~ooh-yeah.

It's been a long time, been a long time, been a long
Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time.

It's been a long time since I rock an' rolled.
It's been a long time since I did the stroll.
Ooh, let me get it back, let me get it back, let me get it back,
Mm-baby where I come from.

It's been a long time, been a long time, been a long
Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time. Yes it has.

It's been a long time since the book of love.
I can't count the tears of a life with no love.
A-carry me back, carry me back, carry me back,
Mm-baby where I come from. Whoah~ooh~oh ~whoah~ooh~ooh~hohh.

It's been a long time, been a long time, been a long
Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time.

Ahhh-ahh~ahh ahh~ahh.

A-makin' vows that just couldn't work right.
Hahh-yeah! Open your arms, open your arms, open your arms,
